ture for activation of apoptotic responses. Further studies in this<br />
direction will reveal the importance of such response.<br />
The use of oxygen beam therapy has definite advantage over<br />
gamma therapy and the understanding of the mechanism of apoptosis<br />
will give the clinician a handle to manipulate therapy for<br />
enhanced cell killing.<br />
